Neato, congrats on the new mod Ajey!

In regards to comp, what about the 00 performance mod and its addons?

@JenkoRun
thanks buddy :) .. i will check it today and add it to the compatible mod's list. if i miss a submod, let me know and i will add it later as well

checked !! 00 performance and !! 00 Infinite Collection ModMenu
both are compatible. if you need other mods please post the links and i will check them as well :)

Thanks for verifying, really glad to hear that!

There are a few others.that I have immediate concerns with:

00 performance plus
Unofficial hive dlc
Unofficial machine dlc
Human fallen empires

I'm on mobile so links are a no go, but the names should be easy to find on the searcher. There are some other mods too but I'll ask about them another time, cheers :)

alright np, i gonna check em soon :)

ok i just checked those four mods. unfortunately they are not compatible without a compatibility patch.

00 performance plus is not compatible because the author added 00_country_types (idk why he had to do that but that makes this mod incompatible with any other mod that adds new ships to the game)

the other mods are basically incompatible for several overlapping files and code and they would definitely need a compatibility patch if you wanted to use them together with ACG, sorry buddy :)

Oof, bugger!

I can't say I'm surprised though, those are large scale mods. Would you be open to making the required patches someday?

Thanks for verifying!

well the current plan is to wait for federations DLC and patch to release. the new patch and dlc is going to change a lot and i think many mods will be incompatible/abandoned with the new patch. so i will have to see and wait how things evolve. i am generally open-minded for providing compatibility patches if

a) i think the game-balance can be sustained and/or
b) i use those mods myself and/or
c) it would feel consistent with the gameplay experience that i try to provide and/or
d) it would not require me to work endless hours on those patches (because i also need some time to work on my own mods).

so regarding:

00 performance plus => yes a comp. patch is possible but the new stellaris patch on march 17th may make some of the performance mods obsolete because they should bring huge performance improvements. so i think a comp. patch maybe won't be necessary but if you should request it after the new patch released, i will take a look into it

regarding the other 3 mods => those are huge scale mods/overhauls. each of them would require a medium or huge amount of time to make them compatible and consistent with ACG. i am currently using none of those mods, i am not sure how and if they would make for a consistent and balanced gameplay experience once i made them compatible so they are not on my priority list atm.

my current plans are to start providing the first compatibility patch for More Events Mod after they released their new mod after the new Federations DLC was released. and then i am thinking about gigastructures comp. patch. so even if i decide to work on those 3 mods i think it's unlikely that they will receive a comp patch anytime soon. i will keep you up to date if anything changes and please keep in mind that also other ppl than me could try to provide compatibility patches for those mods and i am always willing to help/assist if someone wants to try working on that :)

Very valid reasons, I had forgotten the impressive performance boost the next update claims to bring in. Thanks for taking the time to write all that out, I'll be jumping around the game later on for bugs n stuff to report for ya.

Thanks again ajey :)

thank you mate :)

Evenin Ajey, hope you've had a good today.

I'm surprised no one else has commented here yet.

@JenkoRun
i updated the compatible mod's list:
compatible mods = archaeology story pack, precursor story pack, the utopian dream, assimilated planets
incompatible mods = event horizon offset facility

Neat, cheers!

I hope I'm not getting annoying for you at this point (please let me know if I am)
